They ' liable Lord objected most 'Strenuously to the Bil o k - ) ! because its etfe& would be to give'relief where it wax least wanted, to those Curates who !tau ';'sl. glary, with an allowattee.of 1.51. more for a resi °elite, Whilst it•inade no provision whatever for the great mass of Curates, who I,verti'in a state of :004 . nlis erY? , He contended that the sum of two hun dred and fifty pounds would be too much in amount to be allowed to Curates, because more than the ' average account of benefices. The Bill he obje&ed t 0 also as giving too minute powers to Bishops; and la Whatever light he considered it, he was the more convinced that it would be dangerous in principle and inefficient in operation. His obje&ion went to tbt principle of the Bill altogether, and as in form it 11 1igiit be necessary to sutler the Order of the Day to be read, he should take the opportunity of the t iuestion respeding the ti t h e . tor re-committing of the Bill to move, as an amendment, that it be re ! cominitted thisday three months. The Order of the Day was then read; and the C.iiAuceLLott of the E XC I IEQUER h a ving moved that t l'e Bill be re -committed on Friday next, Lord Pok cticsTEß moved his atiendment, that it be re-com tbitted this day three months. . he WIND HAM NA expected that the arguments. vn, his Noble Friend, dud the knowledge he laaidia...,l P_loyed of the subje6t, would have produced sem+, a uswer to his excellent speech.

The report we yesterday gave of the Debate in the HiouSe'ofCOlthilollS the night before, on the subjea of Sir ItrouArto,STßAcuAN'sSqttadron, pre vented .us from. entering into any observations, but the . matter 'was so amply discussed, and`the Con dutTof the Admiralty so fully defended, in the able speech of Mr. WELLESLEY POLE, that any remarks from- us are hardly necessary. Any person who read Mr. WELLESLEY PoLn's speech with attention, and whh an' unbiassed mind, Ilnd also what was said by Mr. ROBERT WARD, must be satibtled that all the charges which were brought agalnt the Admiralty were founded in ignorance and misconception. The Admiralty, it plainly appeared 'from the.docunients referred tu, did every thing in its power to send ade quate supplies to the Squadron in question; and no thing but the oppositiou of the elementt, whialt was not to be resisted, prevented Sir RICHARD from.re.. ceiving them at an earlier period. But the .great point which the - Opposition wished to prove was, that for want of these supplies Sir IttenAltv was obliged to leave ,his station, and the French &pia dton was thereby enabled 'to escape. Now: it is manifest that Sir RICHARD -never did leave his station till he was absuletely driven away by the state of the weather. Instead, therefore, of cen sure, the Admiralty deserves the highest praise for the vigilance, activity, and success with which it executed the must important opera tions at-the same period.
